KKR End GT’s Winning Streak With 29-Run Victory At Eden Gardens

Kolkata Knight Riders kept their IPL 2026 playoff hopes alive with a commanding 29-run victory over Gujarat Titans at Eden Gardens on Saturday.

Finn Allen smashed a blistering 93 off 35 balls, while Angkrish Raghuvanshi remained unbeaten on a career-best 82 to power KKR to a massive 247/2. Cameron Green also contributed an unbeaten 52. In reply, Gujarat Titans fought hard through captain Shubman Gill’s fluent 85 and Jos Buttler’s 57, but regular wickets and disciplined death bowling restricted them to 218/4. Sunil Narine starred with the ball, claiming 2/29 in his 200th IPL appearance.

The defeat snapped GT’s five-match winning streak, while KKR climbed to sixth place and stayed firmly in the playoff race.
